I mean, if you look at the NFL, it’s not really different, 13 of the 32 teams have combined to win all but 5 Super Bowl titles. 13 teams have never won one. But the money is the same and there’s 32 of them.
It’s what the top 40 programs need to do. They have budgets and support that few can compete with, not including the history, the locations, or their media.
I’m not holding my breath for a CFP appearance, but I believe we have the talent/coaches to have a really good season and maybe even make the AAC Championship Game next season.
Also, if we are in the same setup with other AAC/MWC/pac/Leftbehinds, then I think it would be no different, support-wise. It’s not leaving I-A in 1983, where the SWC/Big 8 were dominating CFB rankings for the previous 20 years and we decided that playing Double Directional Louisiana schools and SFA and Sam Houston was just fine.
That we have any fans that graduated from here before 1995 is amazing. The school literally nuked the program’s support and made t-shirt fans out of our alumni.
